You are a data engineer implementing a lambda architecture on Microsoft Azure. You use an open-source big data solution to collect, process, and maintain data. The analytical data store performs poorly.
You must implement a solution that meets the following requirements:
Provide data warehousing
Reduce ongoing management activities
Deliver SQL query responses in less than one second
You need to create an HDInsight cluster to meet the requirements.
Which type of cluster should you create?
- A: Interactive Query
- B: Apache Hadoop
- C: Apache HBase
- D: Apache Spark
Correct Answer: D
Azure offers you a combination of following technologies to accelerate real-time big data analytics:
Azure Cosmos DB, a globally distributed and multi-model database service.
Apache Spark for Azure HDInsight, a processing framework that runs large-scale data analytics applications.
Azure Cosmos DB change feed, which streams new data to the batch layer for HDInsight to process.
The Spark to Azure Cosmos DB Connector
Note: Lambda architecture is a data-processing architecture designed to handle massive quantities of data by taking advantage of both batch processing and stream processing methods, and minimizing the latency involved in querying big data.

A company has a SaaS solution that uses Azure SQL Database with elastic pools. The solution contains a dedicated database for each customer organization. Customer organizations have peak usage at different periods during the year.
You need to implement the Azure SQL Database elastic pool to minimize cost.
Which option or options should you configure?
- A: Number of transactions only
- B: eDTUs per database only
- C: Number of databases only
- D: CPU usage only
- E: eDTUs and max data size
Correct Answer: E
Maximum resources utilized by all databases in the pool (either maximum DTUs or maximum vCores depending on your choice of resourcing model).
Maximum storage bytes utilized by all databases in the pool.
Note: Elastic pools enable the developer to purchase resources for a pool shared by multiple databases to accommodate unpredictable periods of usage by individual databases. You can configure resources for the pool based either on the DTU-based purchasing model or the vCore-based purchasing model.

You are a data engineer. You are designing a Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) architecture. You plan to use Microsoft Azure Data Lake as a data storage repository.
You must provision the repository with a resilient data schema. You need to ensure the resiliency of the Azure Data Lake Storage. What should you use? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Correct Answer: Exam simulator is required
An HDFS cluster consists of a single NameNode, a master server that manages the file system namespace and regulates access to files by clients.
Box 2: DataNode
The DataNodes are responsible for serving read and write requests from the file system’s clients.
Box 3: DataNode
The DataNodes perform block creation, deletion, and replication upon instruction from the NameNode.
Note: HDFS has a master/slave architecture. An HDFS cluster consists of a single NameNode, a master server that manages the file system namespace and regulates access to files by clients. In addition, there are a number of DataNodes, usually one per node in the cluster, which manage storage attached to the nodes that they run on. HDFS exposes a file system namespace and allows user data to be stored in files.
Internally, a file is split into one or more blocks and these blocks are stored in a set of DataNodes. The NameNode executes file system namespace operations like opening, closing, and renaming files and directories. It also determines the mapping of blocks to DataNodes. The DataNodes are responsible for serving read and write requests from the file system’s clients. The DataNodes also perform block creation, deletion, and replication upon instruction from the NameNode.

You are developing the data platform for a global retail company. The company operates during normal working hours in each region. The analytical database is used once a week for building sales projections.
Each region maintains its own private virtual network.
Building the sales projections is very resource intensive are generates upwards of 20 terabytes (TB) of data.
Microsoft Azure SQL Databases must be provisioned.
Database provisioning must maximize performance and minimize cost
The daily sales for each region must be stored in an Azure SQL Database instance
Once a day, the data for all regions must be loaded in an analytical Azure SQL Database instance
You need to provision Azure SQL database instances.
How should you provision the database instances? To answer, drag the appropriate Azure SQL products to the correct databases. Each Azure SQL product may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Correct Answer: Exam simulator is required
SQL Database elastic pools are a simple, cost-effective solution for managing and scaling multiple databases that have varying and unpredictable usage demands. The databases in an elastic pool are on a single Azure SQL Database server and share a set number of resources at a set price. Elastic pools in Azure SQL Database enable SaaS developers to optimize the price performance for a group of databases within a prescribed budget while delivering performance elasticity for each database.
Box 2: Azure SQL Database Hyperscale
A Hyperscale database is an Azure SQL database in the Hyperscale service tier that is backed by the Hyperscale scale-out storage technology. A Hyperscale database supports up to 100 TB of data and provides high throughput and performance, as well as rapid scaling to adapt to the workload requirements.
Scaling is transparent to the application – connectivity, query processing, and so on, work like any other SQL database.
